No.  At least, not in the form above.

The lines you want to replace are looking for the freebsd.dsl file in
doc/<lang>/share/sgml/freebsd.dsl, and not doc/share/sgml/freebsd.dsl
(which is what your patch would do).

This is because each language has its own .dsl file, so that we can
keep per-language customisations separate.

If you're planning on using doc.docbook.mk for your own documents then
you are going to have to redefine DSLHTML and DSLPRINT accordingly.

We should probably document this in doc.docbook.mk.  Any recommendations
for the text?
